My post was poorly worded. I will be off Christmas because I’ll just bid it off, but the way the policy is written doesn’t accomplish what they want and it opens the doors to really game the system. As written, if someone gets sick (most common illnesses share covid symptoms) and test negative, it is to their advantage to not report it to the company and just miss one trip rather than report it and be forced to burn your bank to cover any trips in a 10 day window. If the company was serious about reporting symptoms, even with a negative test, they wouldn’t force us to burn so much sick time. For those wanting to game the system, getting a large block of days off including a holiday is easy. Just report covid-like symptoms, notify the company, and then go do what you want to do.
